She is soft-natured, affectionate and happy, with a wonderful personality that makes her so easy to adore. She really is a bundle of sunshine β˜€οΈπŸ’œ Maisie loves people and absolutely adores being close to them. She loves attention, cuddles and physical affection and will often put her front paws up on people because she just wants to be as close to you as possible. She is such a lovable girl who would happily spend her day surrounded by her favourite people. She is wonderfully well-socialised and gets along brilliantly with dogs of all sizes, as well as cats and children of all ages. She is happy around everyone she meets, making her a lovely companion for a family. Maisie walks well on the lead and is a stable and affectionate girl who takes everything in her stride. Because she loves getting close to people and putting her paws up for cuddles, some supervision around very young children is recommended so she doesn't accidentally knock them over. She is ready to fill her forever home with love, cuddles and that gorgeous smile πŸ₯° πŸ“– Maisie’s Story πŸ“– Maisie was sadly found abandoned on the streets of Serbia during our daily street feeding efforts in April 2026. When we first noticed her, it was clear that she needed help. She had lost much of her fur due to a serious skin condition. We had space available for Maisie at the Pansion, so we were able to bring her into our care and give her the safe place she needed to begin her recovery. One of our wonderful trus

About Maisie

What life with Maisie looks like

Maisie is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Whispaws Animal Sanctuary in Serbia (UK-managed).

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible β€” a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" β€” quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures β€” to let them settle.

πŸ‡·πŸ‡ΈAdopting from Serbia

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country β€” confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Maisie, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Maisie?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Whispaws Animal Sanctuary handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Maisie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Maisie if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad β€” Whispaws Animal Sanctuary will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Maisie already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported β€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Maisie isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work β€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Whispaws Animal Sanctuary early rather than rehoming privately; they know Maisie and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (SR). Translation is imperfect β€” names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
